• With the newest additions to the cutting edge firmware I could reduce down the code in my experimental fastload and widgetupdate apps. fastload does close to nothing now, it essentially only shows the "Fastloading..." screen as a visual aid to differentiate between fast and normal loading. widgetupdate still does some trickery while loading widgets to wrap their display input related handlers to prevent them registering interactions while not visible and to reduce the number of drawWidgets calls to at most two per call from an app.

    I think the state in the normal development apploader is now plenty fast for daily use and we are currently at a point of diminishing returns for experiments like mine. That does not mean I will stop playing around with this but I think there have been some really great improvements the last few weeks.
